Meet our new Pharmacist!

We would like to take a moment to introduce to you our newest pharmacist, Will Hunt. Will is a 2020 graduate of Auburn University’s Harrison College of Pharmacy. He is coming to us from Crossville Discount Drugs, where he was a dedicated member of their staff and community for 4 years. He is bringing a wealth of knowledge and dedication to you and is willing to go above and beyond to offer you the best care to help you stay healthy.

Will is a DeKalb County native, growing up in Crossville. He has been married to the love of his life, Mrs. Mayson, for just over 4 years. She is the Mental Health Coordinator for Guntersville City Schools. They have a daughter, Ms. Charlotte, who will be 2 years old before we know it. Will enjoys spending time with his family, travelling, among numerous other activities outside of work and is an active member of Geraldine First Baptist Church.

Although he is not a stranger to us, as a fill in pharmacist and former intern, Will is excited to start this new endeavor. If you have already had the pleasure of interacting with Will, you probably quickly realized that he is the perfect addition to the Rainsville Drugs team. We are incredibly happy to have him!
